We recently stayed at the Vila Nova for 4 nights as part of a one week trip to Sao Miguel. Located towards the edge of Ponta Delgada and only a few minutes drive from the airport it's a good base for mooching about the capital and exploring this side of the island – Sete Cidades is about half an hour... more

We reserved and paid for a Jr. Suite which was confirmed by the hotel and when we arrived they told us there were none avaiable. When I requested a refund for the difference between the room I paid for and the room I received I was told that I would have to talk to my travel agent. I found the... more

I had a great room with a corner balcony which overlooked the swimming pool. My room had a table and two chairs in the room as well as on the balcony. Continental Breakfast are the same foods everyday. For dinner, you can choose from fine dining in the hotel restaurant or get a sandwich in the lobby bar. This hotel... more

We were pleased with the Vila Nova because you get what you would expect for the reasonable price. Located only 10 minutes from the airport means that the access to the airport and all main roads connecting to the rest of the island are easy. Parking in the hotels parking spaces for a few Euros per day means the car... more

We stayed at this 3 star hotel for 1 week and were really impressed. It is an all round excellent 3-star accommodation. Rooms were moderately sized; strong hot showers; hairdryer; daily cleaning; room service (cheapest room service we ever had - burgers, shakes, omelettes, icecream, sandwiches and more); tv with fox, sky news, cnn, mtv, hollywood movie and many other... more

I would recommend this hotel to anyone, because its close to some many things in Ponta Delgada. The service was great and my husband and daughter loved the pool. The breakfast was good. (scramble eggs, hot dogs (sausages), cakes, different type of breads, yogurt, coffee, tea and juices) Free internet in the lobby. The cafe in the hotel was nice.... more

We returned here after staying here the year before. Once again we were very pleased with the quality and service that we received. This time we stood here for 12 nights. We found a nice deal on the azores website that offered a free night if you book at least 6 nights. The hotel is about a 7 minute cab... more

I stayed six nights at this hotel. We arrived from the US at 8:15 a.m. and the room wasn't ready until 2:30 p.m. If your flight arrives early in the morning, be sure that you or your travel agent informs the hotel ahead of time so that you don't have to wait, especially when you've travelled through the night.

Booked as part of cut price deal through Atlantic Holidays. Overall great value, clean hotel and good room furbishment with TV, including British Sky News. Minor disappointment in room is lack of beverage facilities. Apparently the vending machine on each floor is alternative but ours was only half stocked with sweet bars and ubiquitous canned drinks. No hot drinks. The... more
